Brass is today a mixture of copper and zinc. During the Viking Age, copper was mixed with tin in various proportions to achieve the same gold-like color that brass has.

Silver-plated brass and brass oxidize over time and become darker in colour. To gently clean silver-plated brass, you can do so with baking soda, aluminum foil, and boiling hot water. This chemical process removes oxidation (tarnish) without damaging the plating through harsh rubbing.
How to do it (baking soda and foil method):
Line a bowl: Line the bottom of a bowl (not metal) with aluminum foil, shiny side up.
Place the item: Place the silver-plated brass item on the foil.
Baking soda: Sprinkle about 2–4 tablespoons of baking soda over it.
Pour water: Pour boiling water over it until it covers the item.
Action: Let it sit for 10–15 minutes, or until the water has cooled.
Rinse & dry: Rinse thoroughly in water and dry with a soft cloth, polish lightly for shine.
Important to consider:
This method removes silver sulfide (the black tarnish) but works best if the item is clean from dirt and grease first.
Do not use this method on jewellery with glued stones or beads, as the heat can damage the glue.
If the silver plating is very thin or worn, be careful not to let the brass underneath show through.
